Your target is a binary object file or a proprietary firmware blob. You have no docs and no debug symbols. What’s the first tool you fire up to find the logic — Hex editor, Ghidra, or a custom script to map the entropy? #reverseengineering #binaryanalysis

In this #OpenAccess article, methods of translating malicious code (#Microcode, #PCode, #LLIL) were tested to see their impact on #malware detection, showing how choices affect accuracy, #data needs, and model performance.

Six Faces, Twenty-Four Bytes: Reversing S01den's Pocket-Cube Crackme
A 14 KB Linux ELF whose only imports are `strcpy`, `puts` and `strlen` turns out to be a complete 2×2×2 Rubik's-cube engine: your "flag" is a string of face-turn letters, the binary spins a scrambled cube stored in `.data`, and it prints `G00d flag!` only when all six faces come out solid.

Still manually writing your own z3 constraints for binary analysis, or have you moved to something like Angr or Manticore? I want to know your favorite approach for solving complex path conditions. #RE #binaryanalysis

`seama`: the D-Link DIR-300's firmware seal, recovered byte-for-byte from one MIPS applet
A stock D-Link DIR-300 rev B5 firmware opens with a 12-byte magic header nobody documents in the GUI. Following it into the rootfs leads to a single multi-call MIPS binary whose `seama_main` defines the whole integrity scheme — a two-record container with an MD5 over *only* the image body. This is t
